THUNDER BAY – Fire crews were on scene early Friday morning at a structural fire on the city’s north side.
According to a release, Thunder Bay Fire Rescue responded to a structural fire around 3 a.m. at the Landmark Hotel on Dawson Road.
Officials say the initial alarm was upgraded to a second alarm after staff on site noticed smoke on the third floor of the building.
Firefighters used forcible entry to gain access to the room and quickly brought the fire under control using a charged hand line from a nearby standpipe connection.
The room was vacant at the time of the fire.
All occupants of the hotel were evacuated while fire ground operations were in effect.
There were no injuries reported.
The fire damage was limited to the contents of a single hotel room, while smoke and water damage were present to the immediate adjoining rooms.
